In Bangladesh, the phrase is often associated with massive hospitality. If someone says they are cooking, they likely expect you to join them for the meal. The Tagore family had a unique fusion style of cooking. Using this phrase in a historical context refers to a rich heritage of culinary innovation. Gender roles are changing. You will often hear young men saying 'Ami ranna korchi' as they explore cooking as a hobby or necessity in bachelor life.
